• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    Congrats on a 2024 Spyder. They have been installing a cheap chinese battery in these last few years. Probably just need to charge up better. The dealership maybe just didn't charge it up properly. Put it on a 1 amp charger for 24 hrs. Also, you could check the battery with a voltmeter, it's...

    2019 RTL - does your trunk pop open?

    The shock is NOT meant to pop it right up from the closed position. I have a rack on the back lid, and I can easily grab that and start the upward motion to go up, but I don't release it, I just follow it up. So if it holds it up, then the shock is functioning properly. I put 2 shocks on mine...

    Is there a way to adjust the Floorboards on a 2014 RT?

    There is NO movement of RT oem floorboards. That slightly forward tilt is the best for comfort for most people. Trying to adjust them up or level would mess with the brake low limit floorboard break away. Thing to do is put on highway pegs

    What size tire/wheel valve stems are used on 2021 Spyder RT?

    My Honda NT700V, I replaced the stems with 10MM size. I put on 90/87 deg aluminum body style, so I never have to replace them cause of rubber deterioration. They have a rubber o-ring on outside base, and a nut on inside. Don't know what size the Spyder has.
